Glad you're feeling better rubyeskimo. I've tried Ojon shampoo, conditioner and treatment in the past and really didn't like the smell of them. Did the mask have a smell?
Yes, the mask has a smoky/incense scent to it. My hair definitely looks a bit healthier and feels softer, but it still has a bit of frizz going on.rogueylawyer wrote: »And now I've gone through my whole stash of makeup. It gets worse...
You should see my stash...Still working on a stash list.Motoko, No7 facial sun cream is brilliant, I have very sensitive skin but this one I haven't had a reaction with.
Missed the original message but I use the Biore UV Perfect Face Milk SPF 50. It's an Asian sunscreen that is really liquidy and has a silicone feel to it so it works really well as a makeup primer.
Just managed to get hold of the Estee Lauder Double Wear Loose Mineral Foundation on ebay for less than half of the retail price! Quite excited to see if it will give the same finish/colour match as the Nutritious one but with a bit more longevity!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170 -

afternoon ladies,
some uu's:
dove conditioner- a freebie with marie clare, I quite liked this and am using another one now but I probably wouldn't go out and buy this
Liz Earle c&p cleanser - amazing stuff and skin feels so soft after using this, will definitely buy again
happy pampering, xo0 -

Hello lovelies!
I am laughing at the mo, because earlier today I searched for this thread to catch up and write a post. I thought it was a bit strange that there were 8 pages to catch up on from yesterday and even stranger that I didn't understand some of the conversation going on! Turns out that I had resurrected the October 2011 post, LOL! Thank you Noelphobic for pointing that one out!This is the post below...LOL....
So nice to come back to 8 pages to catch up on Hugs to everyone x
Welcome to lucyloo! That's awful Mingle - what happened?! Loving the nail designs Sawan x
IN:
Jergens Cocoa Butter Body Lotion - it is SO nice to not have a stash of something, and go buy it because I need it! Feeling very motivated to work towards having only one of each product on the go!
That saying, I will be going to Paris next weekend, so I will defo be adding to my stash with some beloved Bioderma and Embryoliss products. Any tips for not going OTT? I can stop myself buying things in the UK, but my stash tends to multiply exponentially whenever I go to Paris or the States!
Any advice/a motivational speech would be very much appreciated!

I did wonder whether there were 2 threads going this month when you posted to the other one Parisian!
Have painted my nails with OPI Ink this afternoon, forgot how much I loved this colour!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170 -
I've been so good until recently... there was the Boots points extravaganza thing and I wanted the Orange Boss perfume set as an xmas pressie for someone, then decided I had to spend £20 more to get the extra 1000 points...
so INs - Aussie shampoo/conditioner/3 minute miracle when I have 1 shampoo/conditioner set on the go, 1 full size Toni and Guy S/C set in stash and 2x Body shop s/c mini sets (free from priority moments) in stash.
2 x sanctuary Spa Body scrubs 200ml (ok I'd finally run out of scrubs, but I could have found cheaper than £6.50 each!!)
and a box of Veet face (read lip) wax strips, when I've already got half a box.
Oh and a face mask "just because" even though I have a couple stashed!0 -
Hello everyone
Managed to have no Ins this weekend and 2 UU :j
Body Shop Mandarin Orchid EDT - WNBA, was nice enough for work but I have plenty of perfumes to spray through first.
Lush Snow Fairy shower gel - WBA, love the smell! I have 2 x 100ml bottles in the stash I bought in the sale last year so must resist stocking up on more this year! I am pretty sure I have not weakened and bought any shower gel at all this year so far, so my stash might actually start to go down
Moving onto the last 50ml of S&G clean on me that I have decanted into a smaller bottle, surely I can get through it!
Saw the LE TSV yesterday but wasn't swayed at all, £55 with the postage seemed pretty pricy to me! I know I'm not keen on the shampoo so this probably helped my resolveNo more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins0
